The limit stop screw limits valve handle 

from being turned to maximum 

position resulting in excessive hot 

water discharge temperatures.

Warning:   

Failure to adjust 

limit stop screw

   properly  may 

result in serious scalding. 

 ■ Place handle on control spindle and open 

valve to maximum desired temperature.

 ■Turn limit stop screw clockwise until 

it seats.

Note:

  Do not install positive shut-off 

devices on control valve outlet or devices that 

do not allow the valve to flow at least 1.5 gpm.
